9-(3÷1÷3)+1=9

Left to right
>>
>>687668872
It's like writing 9 - (3*3) + 1
>>
>>687668872
There's no right hand side of the equation, furthermore there are no variables to solve for.

This left hand side simplifies to:
9 - 3/(1/3) + 1
One third fits 9 times in three
9 - 9 + 1
This can be only be rewritten as
9 + -9 + 1
Therefore it simplifies to
1

The answer is 1.

what this thought process really comes down to is whether or not 3/1/3 = 3/(1/3). They are not equal. It can be deceptive because of the way 1/3 is written. We cannot assume the 1/3 is processed first unless we were given it in parenthesis or in decimal form; therefore, the answer is 9.

Actually its 100% implied. When a fraction is depicted in fraction form, it's implied to be in parenthesis. So if your mapping it out as 3/1/3 you are doing it wrong. Why the fuck else would they show 1/3 in fraction form rather than show another divide sign?

it is PE(MD)(AS) not PE(Fraction)(MD)(AS) as a fraction is a form of division rather than an integer/decimal/variable. 3 on top of 1 on top of 3 is another way to write 3/1/3. Just because 1 is on top of 3 doesn't grant the fraction increased priority.

PEMDAS is bullshit though. It's what retarded teachers teach retarded students resulting in retards like yourself. Go fuck yourself.

Addition and subtraction are basically the same operations. Subtracting a number is the same as adding a negative number.

Multiplication and division are basically the same operations. Multiplying by one third is the same as dividing by three.

Fuck. PEMDAS and the cunt who came up with it.

FINAL ANSWER
THE QUESTION IS BULLSHIT AS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH INFORMATION TO KNOW THE ORDER TO DO IT IN. IT NEEDS MORE BRACKETS.
THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS IS A PIECE OF BULLSHIT THAT SHOULDN'T BE TAUGHT. IN THE REAL WORLD, EQUATIONS ARE NOT AMBIGUOUS.
>>
>>687675100
That only goes for different operations.

9 - 3 + 4 is the same as 9 + -3 + 4. There is no other fucking way. (answer = 10).

9 / 3 * 4 is the same as 9 * 1/3 * 4. There is no other fucking way. (answer = 12).

They are not fucking different operations.

Furthermore, if it's such a hassle you can always just fucking ASK where the parentheses go when presented with an equation. The dumb shit who gave you the equation should learn how to math better.

During 3÷1/3, you niggloids are doing 3÷3 and 3÷1, you people are dumb.

The 3 that gets divided by 1/3 is over 1. So ilwhat it says is 3/1÷1/3.

so then if you have 3 divided by 1 divided by 3, with NO BRACKETS, then what order do you do it in?

hint: it's exactly the way the calculator says it is

You didn't enter the equation properly, you useless dribble of jizz. One-third is not entered correctly.

yes it is, retard

let me guess, you think that the "correct" way to do things is to add brackets where ever you fuckin feel like it?

the equation doesn't have brackets, you can't just pretend that it does

You removed the significance of the fraction, thus changing the result. Before calling out others, check your own Downs.

you're literally arguing with a calculator, you fucking autist

what changes the result is adding shit that isn't there, like brackets

I love how these threads come up with a million answers.. I'm not great in math myself but let me try.

This sum is missing some serious brackets, basically you have 3/1/3. The fact that two ways of expressing a division are written in the sum doesn't mean they are different.

Division comes before adding/subtracting, but what comes first? As far as I remember, when no brackets are specified, you solve left to right.

9 - 3 / 1 / 3 + 1

9 - ((3/1)/3) + 1

9 - (3/3) + 1

9 - 1 + 1
